The Peacekeeper Rail Garrison is a mobile missile system that was developed by the United States Air Force during the 1980s as part of a plan to place fifty MGM-118A Peacekeeper intercontinental ballistic missiles on the rail network of the United States. The railcars were intended in case of increased threat of nuclear war to be deployed onto the nation’s rail network to avoid being destroyed by a first strike counterforce attack by the Soviet Union.
